@JBL8863 --- Your mistake: There are NO pedals. Guitar goes straight into amp. Overdrive produced soley from the SL-X factory preamp. There recorded signal, however, is slightly distorted because the volume coming out of the 4x12 speaker cab is over-saturating the cheap built-in video-cam mic. BTW, you're a drummer right? I checked your videos - you should tune your toms, dampen your bass drum & loosen your grip when playing the cymbals.
@sunbeamstrut LOL...that's a rack effects module sitting on top of that head right? You changed it to 32-19-38.. colors your sound...
Just play the amp and loose the rack mount that's going to fall and hit the floor.
I use a timponic drum tunner to tune toms...better than tunning by ear. If the bass drum was set any lower it would be like hitting a cardboard box. Aquarian super kick2 batter with Evans EQ pad, mic inside the drum position center with a stand bolted insde. LOL..
No You don't need a midi pedal. You should just demo the amp with NO Effects so we can truly hear the natural nuances, and the TONE unadulterated. Too bad.
@ThePhallystorm - - I SHOULD? Says who? If you're purist ears are troubled, simply click one of the DOZENS of other YT posts displaying the SL-X's dry tone. My upload attempts to show the VERSATILITY of this amp, since many have labeled it a one-trick-pony. The touch of reverb/delay and nuance of shifted pitch are offered up here to open your mind to some alter POSSIBILITIES; But alas, horizons blind a rigid mind!
@Wolfesnacht --- Yeah, it was my first try at recording a live amp setup. I had just gotten the G-Major and wanted to show some of the possibilities of this amp with a quality effect unit in the loop. When I have a chance I'll post up a dry sample.
@sunbeamstrut I got the 50w 2500 SL-X. Awesome amp. Theres a lot of hate about these amps, Generally from folk who obviously sit on forums reading shit all day and have never owned one or played one for more than 2 minutes. The 900 is the dark horse of the JCMs. Loud & Proud!
bad ass.

Luckily the tc electronics are VERY transparent, and dont effect the overall tone. :) cool demo of both products.

I love the sound of a Marshall clean. No hesitation, just right there in your face. The drive is sweet as well.
